Concatenation of rows for column

Hi All,

 

I am trying to create column based on available column.

Such as TDLINE ,TDNAME,Test desire result as below.

Requesting any posiblitities in M query please help.

Thanks in advance.

 

  • Hello Anonymous,

     

    This is possibile in PowerQuery by doing some adjustments inside a GroupBy option.

    Grouping the information by TDNAME you can add a new Column using the Text.Combine function like : 

     

    Table.Group(Source, {"TDNAME"}, {{"Desire Result", each Text.Combine([TDLINE],","), type nullable text}, {"All", each _, type table [TDNAME=nullable text, TDLINE=nullable text, Test=nullable text]}})

     

     

    You can get in this link a PowerBI file with an example : https://we.tl/t-emzQC0kXFv

     

    Hope this answer solves your problem!

        Hi Anonymous,

         

        In the Table.Group function you're providing, you are not referencing the previous step (Added Items1), but the "Source" step (as you can see in the picture bellow):

         

         

        Instead you should have this :

         

         

        Table.Group(#"Added Items1", {"TDNAME"}, {{"Desire Result", each Text.Combine([TDLINE],","), type nullable text}, {"All", each _, type table [TDNAME=nullable text, TDLINE=nullable text, Test=nullable text]}})

         

         

        For additional help, please @ me in your reply!
